>> i think what you saw in the debates that was governor romney and president obama both understand the american people are sick and tired of these wars. they are sorry they ever heard of the place called the middle east. they just want out. and so the question is how do you, to the degree you can, shape the environment after you get out? and i think that's what all of this talk about 2014 in afghanistan is, to focus the minds of afghan leaders. we are not going to be around. and i actually think iraq has gone better than i expected. so, who knows. afghanistan might too. i'm actually though in the long run, more pessimistic about afghanistan than i am about iraq. >> start by why do you think iraq has gone better than expected and then michael will talk about where you think there's gaps in this path's approach to t. >> i thought that iraq would unravel after the americans left. in fact, aid series on my blog called "iraq, the unraveling." it hasn't. rather it has sort of come to a stalemate it is not falling apart but not making any political progress it is just sort of sitting there, n

most devastated parts of the state. again, i will give this to the meteorologists across -- up and down the eastern seaboard. they got this one right. most of them said that the eye would go right over this area of new jersey, and indeed it did. therefore, it is new jersey which seems to have suffered the worst from the storm's effect. of course there was a huge fire in queens that knocked out 80 homes, destroyed 80 homes, including a representative of the state of new york's home as well. but at the moment, you are looking at this live aerial photo of margate where the water as you see has receded, but the residue is still there, including tons of sand that was simply deposited as far as three blocks from the ocean, ending up in people's homes. reports of fish flopping around on people's kitchen floors. just an unbelievable sight. >> no sharks. liz: no sharks unless charlie shows up. we will get to charlie gasparino in a minute. with close to 16,000 flights cancelled and airports closed, the global travel association p
